Got the walls poured yesterday. What do you think about this corner though...??

Its the same here I believe. And the footings are close but mostly below 42". I just checked. Thanks for the input!

Your thread "just happened" to be the "next thread" link next to mine. http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=263702 WOW!! So glad I clicked this!! Nice work. So... of course I have a few questions: 1.) Where did you get your stainless roofing for the walls? 2.) I like the...

Got the footings poured today and thankfully the rain held off. Hope to have the backfill and walls done next week.

You obviously don't know me... it takes A LOT to offend me!! :lol_hitti None taken. HP Wheelchair is shown in post #17 below behind my tractor.:rocker: http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showpost.php?p=4300651&postcount=17

we have a hole in the ground now and a big pile of dirt!

thanks for the input Ken. 1.) Code for garages used to be the case here but has changed. 2.) I am going up 18" so the ramp I have in my garage to "code" would take up one whole side. :mad: So... raising the floor is easier just costly... but its covered! 3.) the lift I am considering is at the...

:dunno: Thinking of getting this lift for use with light auto work and tractor/ATV work unless someone else has a better idea. http://www.bestbuyautoequipment.com/auto-lift-sc-2k-2000lb-single-column-turf-lift-p/al-sc-2k.htm http://www.bestbuyautoequipment.com/v/vspfiles/AutoLifts/AL-SC-2K.pdf

Finished the siding removal and making room for the addition by removing part of the deck.

Thanks for the reply. The 4'0" dimension was changed a little since the counter top next to the toilet is abut 24" wider. But the basis for your question is related to code for grab handles and since grab handles are not necessary for my personal needs we are using the space in a different...

Day 1 - Finally!!

Of course! Nice updates!

the other quote was within 3%. Must be this kinda thing is a little more expensive than in 2001 when I had other work done!

Got the quote back from my builder. Sticker SHOCK! :eek: :yikes::scared:It is WELL over six digits :dunno: About twice the cost of what I expected. We're planning for a worst case cost but that seems a little over the top to me! Anyway... This may have to be done in multi-stages. I'm meeting...

Looking great! Thanks for sharing all the pics. You really set the bar high for people like me who are just getting started! Oh, and please send your winter to Michigan. I'll gladly trade you single digit temps for multi digit daily snow fall!!

Thanks MUCH for your comments Bill. I believe I addressed your concerns below. Either way, let me know your thoughts. Yes, I cannot move that door forward as my lot line is too close. Even if I could it would make the front of the house / garage look a little odd. Yes, the doors and headers...

Outstanding ideas! Thank you! Any pictures of your friend's place I'd appreciate. I really like the cord reel ideas! I'll be using a cord reel for my air compressor too!!

Hi gang! Recently joined and started a new thread on my project. http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=263702

Attached is a picture of the present state. It may look like a ton of room for someone to WALK around in there but for a dude in a wheelchair it is far from enough. The lift should help me get around instead of crawling around on the ground but that will take up some room too. I also included...

thanks I have seen his stuff and looks great! I too have been spending WAY too much time on e-Bay but I think I have a lift lined up. :rocker:
